BAKER CITY – The Wallowa-Whitman National Forest is giving the public more time to review the existing condition maps for the forest, and offer corrections and input.

The new comment deadline is March 31.

Forest Supervisor Tom Montoya said he has received requests for more time from Baker County and several organizations.

The maps display roads and motorized trails, and are being updated to use as the forest staff decides how to move forward with the travel management rule.

Maps are available online and at libraries in Baker City, Enterprise and La Grande and a set has been provided to the County Courts in Grant, Wallowa, Union and Baker counties. Call 541-523-1246 for more information.
